You mean no one wants to share a seat with a drugged out smelly crab ridden junkie?

I would enjoy a “poop tourism” package that lets participants poop on cars drive to work that day by liberal CEOs.

“Not sharing a seat next to” isn’t the problem. Body odor can empty a third of a car. Defecation you can smell in at least 1/2 the car.

It’s bad here in Dallas, as well. I constantly smell pot on the trains.

How much tax money is squandered on public transportation?

Lately I've made it a point to count the number of riders on city buses that I pass on the streets. Here in the Hampton Roads area in Virginia, full-sized buses routinely have no more than three or four riders using them at any given time. How much do these things cost? How much fuel is wasted? Pollution generated? They could be using minivans that cost a helluva lot less money.

Not news by any stretch. Remember a 1960s paperback book about the homeless on New York's transit system: Subways Are For Sleeping

I continue to be amazed at just how Stuck On Stupid Liberals/Commies/democRATs really are. I know that I should not be amazed, but I am. I suppose that I just figure that sooner or later these morons will come to their senses. Or not?

“Defecation you can smell in at least 1/2 the car”? No, somebody poops on BART and that car will be empty. I’ve seen it with my own eyes. Absolutely disgusting.

San Francisco deserves the ‘hell on earth’ their stupid liberal ideas have created. It’ll get worse too... and worse and worse until they wake up and start DOING GOOD RATHER THAN LOOKING GOOD.

My little city runs a 12k weekly deficit running electric zero emission buses around town, all empty. But ,the wear and tear is the same, they just bought a new fleet.

I left my shit in San Francisco
High on a hill it calls to me...

If you’re going to San Francisco be sure to wear some feces in your hair...

Shit city here I come...

The songs and jokes write themselves.

This is Nancy Peelosi’s home area. I guess that explains a lot.

There is a CBS Radio Workshop production of that out there on YouTube at one time.

Another good one in a similar vein is The Exurbanites.

Buried in this is the fact that BART is another government supported example of failed social engineering. A full third of BART's operating budget is taxpayer funded, whether they use it or not.

I like to feel that I had some small part in Steamboat Willie's defeat. (I like rail travel, but I investigated true costs, something Willie didn't or wouldn't approach.) I kept pointing out, every time he insisted on posting, that passenger rail can't function without subsidies.

Was that wrong?

True enough. Bums just can’t be allowed to control a society ... neither the “homeless” nor politicians in general.

They have spent literally hundreds of billions of dollars in light rail around here as well. In the past they have made some routes completely free and encouraged “homeless” to sit on the trains all day and counted them at every stop to lie about how many people are using the train. It is pathetic! Anyone who sits in one of the seats and doesn’t pickup at least a few fleas, lice, scabies, bed bugs, or other unwanted hitch hikers is very lucky indeed. This is not to mention the crap you can catch from touching the same things that some poopy fingered bum just had his hands on, or sitting in spittle, vomit, urine, blood, or other bodily fluids. Yeah, public transit what a concept in a society that allows and encourages filthy animals to use it.
